Squirrel sneaks a drink in between birds

He catches me with the camera and says" Hey!whatchalookin at?"

Water is essential to attracting more birds to the yard.I have a small pond with a pump that recirculatesthe water. Nothing like running water to bring thebirds in. When I saw this Sparrow down in the verylow water it reminded me I needed to turn on the pumpand add some more water.

"A little more water here please..."

"Do you think I look fat drying my feathers this way?"

"Ahhhh this is more like it.. the shower is acutally working

Mrs. Cardinal came over to see what the fussing was about

She was loving the sprinkles of water coming out

See another White throated Sparrow waiting his turn?

Pretty in the Lilacs after her bath

Mr. Groundhog comes out to see if he can fit into the pond...

Nope! But I left some corn on another stump just for him.

Everything in the yard has possibilities for wildlife...take advantage of it as best you can.
